A short YouTube monologue (by Anwar White) giving blunt dating advice: date widely to find the best partner and avoid men who display jealousy rooted in insecurity. The speaker argues many Black men may appear jealous when partners have higher education or income, and warns against staying with men who try to ‘humble’ or diminish successful partners.

Sunflower Child said a lot of these black men come across as jealous. What now? Well, what now is that you date everybody and you see who wins. This should be the Hunger Games for your heart, girl. Chomp, chomp.
If you're not dating everyone, you are making it seven times harder to find your person. And that's just the math.
So date everybody and see who wins. I don't care who you get with. I just want him to treat you the very best that you can be treated.
Sometimes that's with a black man. Sometimes that's not.
A lot of black men are coming off jealous to you because you might be more educated than them and you might have more degrees and you might be making more money than they are.
You don't want to be with someone like that because they will often want to humble you and they will try to put you down on their level so that they don't feel as inadequate as they do. Let them feel inadequate by themselves. Let them go back to their mama. Their mama will fill them up with delusion.
